I wasn't offering "rules", we are all grown ups here, we surely do not need a class monitor to keep us in tow. I was offering some suggestions. If, what I did was to describe the problem rather than the solution, then I'd love to hear your views on what the solution is.
However, as this is my thread, I have to put my contraints on your reply.
1) Replies only in pink fluffy vocabulary
2) All rude words must be replaced by the word balley as I do think that's ever so pucker
3) All name calling must be complimentary
Failure to adhere to these rules WILL result in me crying in the corner for hours because a stranger doesn't like me
Yep we do, everything everwhere, needs organising and controlling by someone.
There is no control here.
I suggested you could at least control / manage the responses to your own thread like Bob did. The world hasn't ended cos the restaurant thread was cleaned up a little.
Its like the real world a heckler or spoiler to your conversation would soon be removed from the conversation , not usually by the authorities, but you would be able to do it yourself.
Why not allow that - rather then enforce that we should put up with anything someone decides to throw at us.
If Bobs continued deleting annoyed someone - they would just not respond to him in future.
Simple.
Without the above rules - ie the thread starter is allowed to delete troublesome posts - the restaurant thread would be as unruly as the rest of the forum.
If the owner or mods can't allow that and control stuff reasonably, rather than waste everyones time, they should be honest say its out of control and shut down the non access bit. Its not even needed for the main point of the forum.
